Hi Ian,
If you've turned the screw, you've already made your first mistake. I'm speaking from experience as I did the same with the first one I worked on. If the wire leading to the battery box wasn't disconnected before, it almost certainly is now. The battery box is glued in place, so you'll need to carefully pry it out. I've always found the glue will let go if you take your time and work carefully. If the wire is disconnected, as it almost certainly will be, you will need to carefully resolder it in place. Be very careful not to overheat the connection or you will melt the plastic battery box. After connection is made, it hopefully will work fine. I've done 4 or 5 of these, and I seem to remember it is a white wire leading to the battery box. It should be obvious though once the battery box is out.
